#73> This launch marks a major milestone in our commitment to the Linux community and the Arm ecosystem. So does Chrome finally hardware accelerates You Tube on GNU/Linux, and supports WebGPU, just like on Android/Linux and ChromeOS/Linux?

#74Earlier quoted context omitted.
I would have more faith in Raspberry Pi's own patched build of Chromium to do hardware acceleration properly on the Pi than I would have in Google's generic Chrome build.
But as far as i know, there has never been working HW accelerated video in their build of Chromium. But yeah, I guess you have point.

#75Wait... weren't there many ARM Chromebooks already?
Sure, and when I worked at Google on Chromecast there was also that build of Chromium. All of that is very different from The G actually providing a packaged official Chrome build, though. Which for some reason they couldn't be bothered to do before (Firefox exists though)

#76> Users with other Linux distributions can also install the ARM64 version of Chrome by visiting chrome.com/download.
You had one job, press release person!

#77Most interesting here is the possibility of Arm64 Widewine libraries appearing?
Re: Bringing Chrome to ARM64 Linux Devices
#78Does that mean Widevine DRM will be supported officially? Does anyone know?
